All In All

(chorus):

All I want to be

"All in all, all I want to be"

All I know to be

"All in all, all I know to be"

All I can hope to be

"All in all, all I can hope to be"

So my prayer is that the all in all becomes all in me

Early in the AM, a new day's in

I'm in my bed still laying

I think I'm gonna stay in

I've got to get motivation for what I'm facing

This world is heavy

I feel my weight bend

Pressure to measure up but I'm nothing special

I feel like an amateur in a world of professionals

And I know man nobody's a pro man

Some keep their heads high, some hang their heads low and

I'm trying to find and hang mine in the right place

Letting my weakness become your strength

I'm taking each day as it comes

Making each one a new one

I'm starting over with the rise of the sun

Embracing life this time holding onto what I believe in

(chorus)

The truth is humbling but also freeing

Yeah, brought to a spot of brutal honesty

Sometimes I feel all I've got is a pen and paper

The chance to be honest and hope in a savior

For a while it was hard to accept it

You see stereotypes and religion killed my perspective

So many questions aimlessly directed

I looked to myself to try and correct it

Now, that's an expectation that I shouldn't expect in

That's a goal that I shouldn't have set

Desire died and all that's left was frustration

As well as an unhealthy self examination

I analyzed it all to the point of psychological torment

Still found no answers in my search for it

Somewhere in all of this I started to realize

I was looking to myself and things I couldn't provide

(chorus)
